**** - wonderful low-key acoustic blues,
By
This review is from: Alone & Acoustic (Audio CD)
Okay, an acoustic guitar and a harmonica, how good can it be? Geez, everything must sound the same!Eh? Well, it can be very good indeed, actually. And it is. 1991's "Alone & Acoustic" is one of the very best of the numerous albums that Chicago blues greats Buddy Guy and Junior Wells recorded together, an intimate, expressive session, and a showcase for Guy's abilities on the acoustic twelve-string as well as for Amos "Junior" Wells' tasteful harp playing. Buddy Guy and Junior Wells play their own compositions (Guy's "Give Me My Coat And Shoes" and Wells' "Big Boat" are among the highlights), as well as covering artists like Jimmy Rogers (a great "That's All Right"), Sonny Terry (an equally fine "Diggin' My Potatoes"), and John Lee Hooker. There are no fewer than three John Lee Hooker-numbers here, actually, and rather than substituting his own name in Hooker's mini-epos "Boogie Chillen", George "Buddy" Guy lets the narrator refer to himself as "Johnny"! Okay, so the setting may have been an Alligator Records studio, but this is still acoustic street-corner blues at its best, and one of the warmest, most enjoyable blues records I've ever listened to.

coffee anyone?,
By "e_blues" (Ramat Gan Israel) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Alone & Acoustic (Audio CD)
Everytime I listen to this wonderful performance, I have an urge to offer Junior & Buddy some coffee. The sound of this CD makes you feel like this pair is sitting next to you, playing just for you. And if one could have them play just for him, wouldn't he offer them, at least, some coffee?The CD is quiet, calm, natural and with the deep voices of the artists makes a great companion for the winter season. This CD contains a collection of mostly classics tracks, some vocals by Junior and some be Buddy (But no duets but the last track). You'll love this one whether you are a blues fan or not.
